Remedies for Title Defects Subject to Seller’s continuing right to dispute the existence of a Title Defect and/or the Title Defect Amount asserted with respect thereto and subject to the rights of the parties pursuant to Section 14.1(f), in the event that any Title Defect timely asserted by Buyer in accordance with Section 11.2(a) is not waived in writing by Buyer or cured on or before Closing, Seller shall, at its sole option, elect to:
Title Defects If on the Closing Date the Sellers shall be unable to cause title to the Property to be free and clear of all exceptions to title other than Permitted Encumbrances, then the Sellers shall be entitled, but shall not be obligated, to adjourn the Closing for one or more periods not to exceed ninety (90) days in the aggregate for the purpose of causing title to be placed in the condition called for by this Agreement. If on the Closing Date, as the same may be adjourned as above provided, title to the Property is not free and clear of all exceptions to title other than Permitted Encumbrances, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by notice to the Sellers delivered on or prior to the Closing Date, as the same may have been extended, in which event this Agreement shall be terminated and of no further force or effect, and neither party shall have any obligations of any nature to the other hereunder or by reason hereof, except as to those obligations hereunder that are specifically stated to survive such termination, and the Deposit shall be distributed by Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 3.2.2 (and the Sellers shall join with Purchaser in executing a written instruction to Escrow Agent to do so); provided, however, that in the event that title to the Property is not free and clear of all exceptions to title other than Permitted Encumbrances due to a breach of the proviso clause of the next sentence, Purchaser shall have the rights set forth in Section 16.2. Neither the Sellers nor Owner shall be under any obligation to take any steps or to institute or prosecute any action or proceedings, or expend any sums of money, to remove from title to the Property any defect, encumbrance or objection to title; provided, however, that the Sellers shall be responsible for discharging (and at or prior to the Closing shall discharge) any liens, encumbrances or other title defects which do not constitute Permitted Encumbrances, which can be discharged solely by the payment of a sum of money and which arise solely on account of actions or failures to act by Owner or VCR. The Sellers may use any part of the Purchase Price to discharge the same, provided that the Sellers shall deliver to Purchaser at the Closing instruments in recordable form sufficient to discharge such liens and encumbrances of record. Except for the Sellers' failure to discharge such monetary liens or encumbrances as aforesaid, the Sellers shall not be deemed in default of this Agreement, and Purchaser shall not be entitled to damages of any kind, if the Sellers shall fail or be unable to cause title to the Property to be in the condition called for by this Agreement, nor shall Purchaser, in such circumstances, be entitled to specific performance of this Agreement (unless the same is due to a default by the Sellers under this Agreement). In no event shall the Sellers or Owner be obligated to discharge any mechanic's or similar lien created by a Tenant in occupancy at the Closing whose Lease is in full force and effect, but the Sellers shall cause Owner (or VCR, as applicable) to use reasonable efforts to cause such Tenant to do so. For purposes of this Section 14.2, the Sellers shall be deemed to have cured or removed any title exception if the Title Company or any other reputable title insurance company shall be prepared to issue to Owner an owner's policy of title insurance for the Property (at standard rates or with the Sellers paying any additional premium in connection with such exception) dated as of the Closing Date insuring over such exception, or providing affirmative coverage or an endorsement with respect thereto that is reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser.
Procedures for Third Party Claims In the case of any claim for indemnification arising from a claim of a third-party other than an Infringement Claim subject to Section 13.3 above (a “Third-Party Claim”), a party seeking indemnification hereunder (each an “Indemnified Party”) shall give prompt written notice, following such Indemnified Party’s receipt of such claim or demand, to the party from which indemnity is sought (each an “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim or demand of which such Indemnified Party has knowledge and as to which it may request indemnification hereunder; provided, however, that failure to give such notice will not affect such Indemnified Party’s rights hereunder unless, and then solely to the extent that, the rights of the Indemnifying Parties from whom indemnity is sought are prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right (and if it elects to exercise such right, shall do so within twenty (20) days after receiving such notice from the Indemnified Party) to defend and to direct the defense against any such claim or demand, in its name or in the name of the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, and with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party; provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume control of the defense of such action only if the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing its indemnity obligations and assumes and holds the Indemnified Party harmless from and against all Losses resulting from such Third-Party Claim; and provided further that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense if (i) the Indemnifying Party shall not have notified the Indemnified Party of its exercise of its right to defend such Third-Party claim within such twenty (20) day period; (ii) such claim or demand seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party, (iii) the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that (x) there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in the conduct of the defense of such claim or demand or (y) the Indemnified Party has one or more defenses not available to the Indemnifying Party, (iv) such claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, or (v) the appropriate court rules that the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend such Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Indemnified Party shall, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, cooperate with the Indemnifying Party, and keep the Indemnifying Party fully informed, in the defense of such claim or demand. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any claim or demand with counsel employed at its own expense; provided, however, that, in the case of any claim or demand described in clause (i) or (ii) of the second preceding sentence or as to which the Indemnifying Party shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such claim or demand, the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have no indemnification obligations with respect to any such claim or demand which shall be settled by the Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any such claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned if such settlement is accompanied by a document releasing the Indemnified Party from all liability with respect to the matter in controversy that is binding, valid and enforceable against all applicable Parties). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Indemnified Party fails to object to the settlement within five (5) Business Days of receipt of a written notice from the Indemnifying Party containing the terms and condition of such settlement, the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to have consented to the settlement.
Title Defect (a) In the event Seller receives notice of any Survey Objection or Title Objection (collectively and individually a “Title Defect”) within the time periods required under Sections 6.1 and 6.2 above, Seller may elect (but shall not be obligated) to attempt to remove, or cause to be removed at its expense, any such Title Defect, and shall provide Purchaser with notice within five (5) days of its receipt of any such objection, of its intention to attempt to cure such any such Title Defect. If Seller elects to attempt to cure any Title Defect, the Scheduled Closing Date shall be extended for a period of twenty (20) days for the purpose of such removal. In the event that (i) Seller elects not to attempt to cure any such Title Defect, or (ii) Seller is unable to cure any such Title Defect within such twenty (20) days from the Scheduled Closing Date, Seller shall so notify Purchaser and Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.3(a) and receive a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit, together with all interest which has accrued thereon, or to waive such Title Defect and proceed to the Closing. Purchaser shall make such election by written notice to Seller within three (3) days after receipt of Seller’s notice. If Seller has elected to cure a Title Defect and thereafter fails to timely cure such Title Defect, and Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement, then (i) Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses payable to third parties in connection with this transaction incurred after the date on which Seller informed Purchaser of its election to cure the Title Defect, not to exceed the Reimbursement Cap, and (ii) Purchaser shall promptly return Purchaser’s Information to Seller, after which neither party shall have any further obligation to the other under this Agreement except for the Termination Surviving Obligations. If Purchaser elects to proceed to the Closing, any Title Defects waived by Purchaser shall be deemed to constitute Permitted Exceptions, and there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price. If, within the three-day period, Purchaser fails to notify Seller of Purchaser’s election to terminate, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived the Title Defect and to have elected to proceed to the Closing.
Remedies for Environmental Defects Subject to Seller’s continuing right to dispute the existence of a Environmental Defect and/or the Remediation Amount asserted with respect thereto, in the event that any Environmental Defect timely asserted by Buyer in accordance with Section 12.1(a) is not waived in writing by Buyer or cured on or before Closing, Seller shall, at its sole option, elect to:
Title Matters Purchaser has received from the Title ------------- Company a preliminary title commitment for a fee policy having an effective date after the date of the Original Agreement, for an ALTA (or such other form reasonably approved by Purchaser) owner's policy of title insurance with respect to the Property, together with complete and legible copies of all instruments and documents referred to as exceptions to title (collectively, the "Title ----- Commitment"). Except as set forth in the Diligence Notice, Purchaser ---------- acknowledges that it does not have any other objections to title exceptions shown on the Title Commitment. Seller acknowledges and agrees that Seller shall attempt to remedy the objections set forth in the Diligence Notice with respect to the Property. Seller shall have the right to adjourn the Closing Date pursuant to Section 3.6 for up to ninety (90) days for such purpose. If Seller ----------- shall be unable to remove any such title defects to which Purchaser has objected in accordance with this Section 3.3, Purchaser may elect (i) to terminate this ----------- Agreement, and this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, or (ii) to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, notwithstanding such title defect, without any abatement or reduction in the Purchase Price on account thereof. Purchaser shall make any such election by written notice to Seller given on or prior to the earlier of the Closing Date or the fifth Business Day after Seller's notice of its inability to cure such defect, and time shall be of the essence with respect to the giving of such notices by Purchaser. Failure of Purchaser to give such notice shall be deemed an election by Purchaser to proceed in accordance with clause (ii) above, and such exception shall be a Permitted Encumbrance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall be obligated to take any and all actions necessary to remove as a title exception (and shall not have the aforesaid option to not cure) any mortgages, deeds of trust, judgments and other liens of a monetary nature, as well as any liens or encumbrances created, permitted or suffered by Seller from and after the date of the Diligence Notice.
Notice of Title Defects Buyer shall provide Seller notice of all Title Defects no later than 5:00 p.m. MST on the date which is seven (7) days prior to the Closing Date (the “Title Claim Date”). To be effective, such notice must (a) be in writing, (b) be received by Seller on or prior to the Title Claim Date, (c) describe the Title Defect in reasonable detail (including any alleged variance in the Net Revenue Interest or Working Interest), (d) identify the specific Asset or Assets affected by such Title Defect, (e) include the Title Defect Value, as reasonably determined by Buyer in good faith, and (f) comply with the limitations and Title Defect Value qualifications set forth in Section 4.14. Any matters identified by Buyer during the Examination Period that constitute Title Defects, but of which Seller has not been specifically notified by Buyer in accordance with the foregoing, shall be deemed to have been waived by Buyer for all purposes and shall constitute Permitted Encumbrances and Assumed Obligations hereunder. Upon receipt of notices of Title Defects, the Parties shall meet and determine upon which of the Title Defects, Title Defect Values, and methods of cure the Parties have reached agreement. Upon the receipt of such notice from Buyer, Seller shall have the option, but not the obligation, for a period ending ninety (90) days after the Closing to cure such defect. If Seller should not elect to cure a Title Defect, and no aspect of such defect is reasonably in dispute, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted for such defect by the amount of the Title Defect Value.
Survey or Title Objections If Buyer discovers any title or survey matter which is objectionable to Buyer, Buyer may provide Seller with written notice of its objection to same. Any contrary provisions of Article XV concerning what does or does not constitute delivery notwithstanding, Buyer shall provide and Seller must actually receive, any notice of objections on or before the fifth (5th) day prior to the expiration of the Review Period (the “Title Review Period”). If Seller has not actually received a written notice of objection to any such matter set forth in the Survey or Title Commitment prior to the expiration of the Title Review Period, it shall be conclusively assumed that Buyer has approved same. If Buyer disapproves any condition of title, survey or other matters by written objection to Seller on or before the expiration of the Title Review Period, Seller shall elect either to attempt to cure or not cure any such item and shall notify Buyer of its election by written notice within five (5) days after its receipt of notice from Buyer setting forth title or survey objection. If Seller commits in writing to attempt to cure any such item, then Seller shall be given until the Closing Date to cure any such defect. In the event Seller shall fail to cure a defect which Seller has committed in writing to cure prior to Closing, or if a new title defect arises after the date of Buyer’s Title Commitment or Survey, as applicable, but prior to Closing, then Buyer may elect, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion: (i) to waive such objection and proceed to Closing, or (ii) to terminate this Contract and receive a return of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit. The items shown on the Title Commitment which are not objected to by Buyer as set forth above (other than exceptions and title defects arising after the Title Review Period and other than those standard exceptions which are ordinarily and customarily omitted in the state in which the applicable Hotel is located, so long as Seller provides the appropriate owner’s affidavit, gap indemnity or other documentation reasonably required by the Title Company for such omission) are hereinafter referred to as the “Permitted Exceptions.” In no event shall Permitted Exceptions include liens, or documents evidencing liens, securing any indebtedness (including vehicle or FF&E leases or financing arrangements) any mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens or any claims or potential claims therefor covering the Property or any portion thereof (“Seller Liens”), each of which shall be paid in full by Seller and released at Closing, except to the extent caused by Buyer. If a vehicle or FF&E lease or other financing cannot be released at Closing, Seller shall credit Buyer at Closing with the amount necessary to fully pay off such lease or financing over its term.
Environmental Defects For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Environmental Defect” means, with respect to any given Asset, an individual environmental condition identified with specificity in Buyer’s Environmental Review that constitutes a material violation of Environmental Laws in effect as of the date of this Agreement in the jurisdiction in which the affected Asset is located, excluding, however any environmental conditions deemed not to be Environmental Defects by application of Section 5.04(c).
Title and Survey Matters Within fifteen (15) Business Days following the Effective Date, Sellers shall cause Escrow Agent (in its capacity as title company issuing the title policy described below, (“Title Company”)) to furnish to Buyer and Sellers title commitments (the “Title Commitments”) with respect to the Property together with copies of all instruments listed as exceptions to title. Within ten (10) Business Days following Buyer’s receipt of the Title Commitments, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause a duly licensed Oklahoma surveyor to furnish to Buyer and Sxxxxxx XXXX/NSPS land title surveys of the Real Property (the “Surveys”). Buyer will have until the expiration of the Inspection Period to give written notice to Sellers specifying Buyer’s objections to the Title Commitment, title exceptions listed therein, and the Surveys (collectively, “Title Objections”), if any. If Buyer timely notifies Sellers in writing of the Title Objections, Sellers shall have five (5) business days after receipt of such notice (the “Title Cure Period”) to elect (but shall have no obligation whatsoever) to cure any Title Objection, and if so elected, shall either (a) satisfy the Title Objections at Sellers’ sole cost and expense and cause the Title Company to revise the Title Commitment to reflect such satisfaction, or (b) provide Buyer and the Title Company with satisfactory evidence that Sellers can and will cure such Title Objections prior to or at Closing; provided, however, Sellers shall be obligated to remove, pay and/or satisfy prior to or at Closing any monetary liens against the Property created or incurred by or through Sellers (each, a “Monetary Lien”). Failure by Sellers to timely respond in writing to any Title Objections shall be deemed Sellers’ decision not to cure any Title Objections. If Sellers elect not to satisfy any of the Title Objections within the Title Cure Period, Buyer shall have the option, exercisable within five (5) days after the expiration of the Title Cure Period, to either (i) waive the unsatisfied Title Objections, in which event the unsatisfied Title Objections will become Permitted Exceptions (hereinafter defined), or (ii) terminate this Agreement in which event the Deposit shall automatically be refunded and returned forthwith to Buyer and, except as expressly set forth herein, neither party shall have any further liability or obligation to the other hereunder. If Buyer fails to notify Sellers in writing within five (5) days after the expiration of the Title Cure Period that Buyer has elected to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 3.4, then Buyer shall be deemed to have waived all unsatisfied Title Objections. If, after the expiration of the Inspection Period, Title Company amends or adds any exception to the Title Commitments other than at the request of Buyer (including any liens against the Property for a liquidated amount that Sellers are not obligated hereunder to satisfy at Closing), the Title Company will notify Buyer and Sellers immediately. Within two (2) business days after Buyer receives notice from Title Company (and the Closing Date shall be extended if needed so that the Closing shall not occur prior to the end of such two (2) Business Day period), together with a copy of such intervening lien or matter, Buyer shall notify Sellers in writing of any objections thereto (a “Supplemental Title Objection”). If Buyer fails to notify Sellers of such Supplemental Title Objection within such two (2) Business Day period, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any objection and approved all such exceptions. If the Supplemental Title Objection is material and adverse to the Property, is not caused by Buyer and Sellers do not agree to remove such matter (other than any Monetary Lien), then Buyer may within two (2) business days after the Supplemental Title Objection, terminate this Agreement in which event the Deposit shall automatically be refunded and returned forthwith to Buyer and, except as expressly set forth herein, neither party shall have any further liability or obligation to the other hereunder. If Sellers have not received written notice from Buyer that Buyer has elected to terminate this Agreement within such two (2) Business Day period of time, then Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any unsatisfied Supplemental Title Objection. “Permitted Exceptions” shall mean any title or survey item, other than Monetary Liens: (i) not raised as Title Objections by Buyer, or (ii) raised as Title Objections by Buyer but thereafter waived or deemed waived.
